It's between DeepCool with 8 fans, or H150i with 5 fans

#

I'd prefer the air cooler route but uncertain if it will look strange

If you post up your full build its a good idea 🙂
For a start people may be able to suggest things you havent thought of

AK620 in a 5000D

#

If you go with air cooler, you can leave out the side fans, you basically want intake at front and exhaust behind the cooler

#

Oh makes sense

#

Will PCS know this already

#

If it was me, I'd be pairing it with black case fans, not RGB ones, but that's a personal perference. If you like RGB, the AIO would look better and you could fill case with RGB fans, front, side and back

I have no interest in rgb tbh

#

I would expect so. You could always place order and then contact them to add a note requesting specific fan placement. I'd got one rear, one one on top, like the image

#

Three front

And none on the side

#

Thanks a lot!

#

I believe 5000D comes with 2 fans already

#

So I can get 5 more right (not side ones)

reef sparrow
#

Yep, two included

Prob the best option from PCS, for non RGB. If only they offered Noctua, BeQuiet or Arctic..... 😉

#

Thanks so much!

#

Is 3 top acceptable or is it better as 1

#

Don't want to mess up the flow of air cooler

reef sparrow
#

You don't want to fill the top, because the fans at the front of the case will suck air up out before it gets to cooler

#

I don't need to purchase any extra fans if I get this case right

#

And I could request for one of the bottom fans to be moved to the rear

reef sparrow
#

Which case? 5000D?

#

Wait, it's the Torrent

#

PCS often include a basic 120mm rear fan in build, even if it's never listed

#

So I would assume they would do they same. And if they don't you can buy a better 120 mm and install yourself
